Heavy Metal Rockman


Over at the Rockman 20th Anniversary hub, Capcom has recently unveiled a beautiful metal Rockman figure.

Due for release sometime in late June, the figure comes in two finishes: silver (pictured) and copper. Standing at approximately 88mm (3.5'') and weighing around 3.1oz, it will retail for the low price of 3,129 Yen ($29.72)

What a lovely anniversary gift!

So, what about us who aren't residents in Japan? How can we purchase one of these beauties? Recently, Play-Asia has sold numerous 20th Ann. goods, so chances of them selling the figure are quite high. We'll see what happens.

  4. Neat stuff!

    My nephew, who seems to be getting into MegaMan games lately, already want 1 silver and 1 copper...

    Let's see if Play-Asia get them or even Capcom of America?

    Take care everyone.
    Read you around.

The show is full of action, mystery, romance, and comedy all rolled into one entertaining program. This article will give you a brief synopsis of the story line of the great Heavy Metal Rockman as well as a few things that you can expect when watching the program.
